Best Spanish Restaurants in Greenbelt

I visited on a Friday night, when there are live l performances. On this night, there was Flaminco music with a dancer. They were outstanding! A great add on to the ambiance. The restaurant is beautifully decorated to the theme and the service is stellar. Everyone was pleasant, attentive and knowledgeable. There are several intriguing options in each section of their robust (but not overwhelming) menus. I did not need the cocktail or wine menus, but I did glance them over. But all of my attention went to the food menu. Everything was fresh and delicious. I had the calamari appetizer, the eggplant appetizer, a salad and paella. That's enough food for 3 meals (I took much of it to the hotel room). It was all prepared to perfection. I also had to go in on dessert, which was also delicious! I might apply for a job there to justify me spending as much time there as I want to! Excellent overall experience!!!

It is truly an amazing experience. We had a fabulous evening. Thank you. The only feedback that feels necessary to share just because everything else was so spectacular is the desserts were not worthy of the rest of the experience. It was beyond disappointing when the meal was as good as it was. To end on stale tasting dry boring cookies was not how I thought it would go. I hope that gets different as I would very much like to go again but dessert is also super important. Thanks for letting me share.

We had a great server named Danny on the grand opening night to the public. He gave us a very in-depth explanation of the menu, this made us get a little bit of everything. We got the blue fin tuna crudo, the smoked trout veloute, the coal roasted oysters (star of the show), the large plate sea bass with salsa verte, the brussel sprouts, and the crispy potatos brava, then ended the meal with the sweet potato tart & espresso. We had the sherry cobbler & falling into place cocktails to start, followed by two glasses of the robola with our fish. Everything was delicious and the charcoal oven really adds a unique flavor to all of the dishes. The side potatos was the most mid thing we ate, and that says a lot. We loved the atmosphere and the prices were crazy. We are big fans of Clyde’s, so we were stoked for Cordelia’s to open!

We had been wanting to have dinner at Jaleo for the past few years and finally got to go tonight for my wife’s birthday dinner. Let me start off by saying that it lived up to and exceeded our expectations. We had the mid-range tasting menu with the sherry pairing and every bite was delicious. Our experience was enhanced by our server Carlos’ knowledgeable description of each course and each of the sherries. We look forward to coming back.

As a celiac, really appreciated the wonderful gluten free vegetable paella!
